Kurti government in July had refused grant by vaccines from two European states

Health Ministry officials had estimated that the month July when offers were made for these donations were due time.

Exactly on July 15th, the Republic of Kosovo's Labour Charger in Prague, Arber Vladhiu, had sent an e-mail to Health Ministry officials, announcing he is expecting an answer for a donation with vaccine Astra Zeneca from Poland's state.

I beg you to inform me with the answer to Poland's MPJ about the demand to donate to Kosovo an amount of Astra Zeneca vaccines. yesterday's correspondent with the deputy director of Poland's Department for European Affairs can retake this order as follows. Please contact me with the answer during the day in order to convey it to”, says Vladiu's e-mail to MSU.

Arsim Qavdarbasha from the MSH had announced that it was proposed that Poland's bid be postponed for a more appropriate period for the country.

At the request of Secretary General Dr. Naim Bardiqi, let me inform you that on the basis of discussions and conclusions from the meeting of representatives of the two MS Commissions, regarding Poland's offer, even in the case of donation of vaccines Astra Zeneca, Poland's bid is proposed to be postponed for a more appropriate period for the country” is the content of the mail Qavdarbasha sent to Vladhi.

In addition to Poland, Kosovo has refused to accept a donation of vaccines from Bulgaria's state.

That these donations were rejected in July have confirmed for Gazeta Express and the Ministry of Health, showing their reason why they had not accepted these vaccines in that time period.

It's true since July. MS has had offers for an amount of vaccines from the state of Poland and Bulgaria to producer Astra Zeneca. At that time, the Ministry, except for Pfizer vaccines, has had about 200,000 vaccines in stock at Astra Zences, donations from Norway's Kingdom, some in the term used by July 31st, and some in the deadline until August 31st, 2021. also from the Health Ministry”, they have declared by the ministry.

From the MSHA, they claim that donations have been accepted so that they will not remain unusable and have your use deadline expired, as has happened with vaccines offered as a donation from Novergia.

And since at that time the population accepted very little of the AZ vaccine and had enough Zenecas in the stock, not to risk the donation accepted to remain undeserved even because of the short term of use that even these vaccines were offered from Poland and Bulgaria were not taken.

Even vaccines that had been donated before these offers, those of Norway could not have been spent all, precisely because of the short term use, something that confirms that taking those vaccines, in the long run of use (from the two countries in question), would only create a stock of vaccines without a deadline of”, is said in the responses of MUCH.

The Express newspaper has again sent questions about the deadline for these vaccines, since, as we have agreed, Poland's deadline has been through late October, but the ministry has responded. From this minister, they haven't even answered when asked if they have subsequently made requests for these donations.

Otherwise, in recent weeks in Kosovo, cases that have ended with fatality by COVID-19 have been added. On August 29th, the most tragic day, with 36 victims, has been marked since the pandemic.

Citizens have complained that they are failing to make terms, as online platforms wrote that cheap stocks.

Minister Vitita at Sunday's conference hinted there are no more vaccines, as he said the terms depend on how many vaccines are available. However, another contingent with vaccines arrived in Kosovo on Monday.

The situation has also been aggravated in local hospitals, which are on the verge of limits. Lack of space has also filled hospital rooms.

Thus has Kosovo Clinical and University Service Director Valbon Krasniqi declared.

In most of the general hospitals, as well as in the QKUK clinics, the situation is too heavy for the fact that we have been forced to suspend many other services and put beds for patients with COVID-19. In some hospitals, we have even begun converting health - staff rooms into patients, such as the case at the Gjilan hospital and Ferizaj Hospital. Also, at QKUK, we already have five clinics that were completely turned into units for COVID-19”, Krasniqi told REL.

He added that within KKUK, the Infectious Clinic, Pulmology and Dermatology, the object of Sports Medicine, a special unit of intensive care, have already been converted into a unit for treating patients with COVID-19. Also, special units for patients with COVID-19 are already available in Paddy and Gynecology.
